DEMAND EXCELLENCE: ON AND OFF THE FIELD


ELCAFOOTBALL

Recommended Posts

My name is Jonathan Gess and I am a high school football coach in the state of Georgia at Eagle's Landing Christian Academy (ELCA).  I have recently written a book about the struggle of pursuing the god of winning verse serving Jesus Christ whole heartedly.  I did not write this as one that has it all figured out or am perfect, but one whose deep desire is to create a program that glorifies God but find myself struggling to not bow down this god of winning.  As coaches, I think we all battle this god of winning.  I wanted to share it in case anyone is interested.  

Thanks!

First of all thanks coach for posting here

in my view if you’re glorifying god you are already winning because you’ve made an impact on much more than a football field.

I understand what you’re saying though if you are attempting to be a state brand or national brand things can get skewed

Especially in the Off Topic forum here.

I agree with Ararar.  Best of luck to you!
